Auto-Updater or Check for Updates Dialog on Welcome Window

Post by SiMpLeToNiUm »

Couldn't see any previous suggestions about this, so I figured why not?

I've noted how easy it is to get the latest UDB updates with an auto-updater, so I was wondering if this has been thought about or, if not, it might be a good QoL idea for Z-family ports or at least GZD? Either an auto-updater that runs on startup (might aggravate antiviruses), or a button on the side to 'Check for Updates' could be cool and be a decent tool for grabbing the latest version in a single click (not that's it's incredibly difficult in the first place, but sometimes you do find yourself a few versions in the dump before you realize).

How much did you look?

There's way too much baggage with this one. The answer's no.
